MotherSchools Vienna Graduation 2025

In July 2025 we had the honour of hosting the latest MotherSchools cohort at the Albertina Modern in the heart of Vienna. A space that celebrates art, culture, and now — the strength and dedication of mothers who are at the heart of their families. These courageous women completed a 10-week journey of growth and transformation — not only for themselves, but for their families and communities, and we couldn’t be prouder!

A heartfelt thank you to Albertina Modern for generously opening its doors and guiding our graduates through the museum following the ceremony — a thoughtful gesture to mark their achievement.

With gratitude to our steadfast implementing partners, Diakonie, and to the Austrian Bundeskanzleramt for making this project possible.

And a special thanks to the artists whose work graced the background of such a meaningful day.
